I couldn’t stop myself. Alpha Moretti’s eyes narrowed to angry slits.

The two men behind him, the young soldier and the older guard, had expressions of shock and curiosity on their faces.

“What rubbish is this?” he hissed.

I felt a tremor run through me, and I tried to conceal it.

“You heard me!” I blurted, my voice cracking slightly, but my words firm.

I turned my gaze to the guards. “Your beloved Alpha is a monster! He–”

His growl cut me off.

The sound shook the foundations of the building. He clamped his hand around my upper arm with a crushing grip, his eyes burned with a fury so intense it knocked the air out of my lungs.

He yanked me into the room and slammed the door shut, turning the lock. We stood away from each other in the middle of the room.

I gulped, my heart pounding furiously against my ribs.

My arm throbbed where his fingers had dug into my skin, but the physical pain was nothing compared to the cold dread that had quickly replaced my rage.

The Alpha was here, in my r

  • The Curse of Fated Mates    Chapter 125

    Silas’ wolf crashed into the corrupted ones with devastating force, killing wolf after wolf. My confusion died down and was replaced with understanding.“They're with us!” Someone shouted. “They're fighting for us!”Hope sparked in my chest for the first time in hours. The new wolves came with something, fresh strength. Their vigor motivated Moretti Brun warriors and just then, we began tearing through the corrupted wolves with renewed efficiency.Silas shifted mid-battle, his human form covered in blood and dirt. “Moretti Brun!” His voice boomed across the battlefield. “I know what you all must think of me. I know what I've done. But I swear on my unborn child. I never betrayed you!”A corrupted wolf lunged at him while he was still talking. One of the new wolves intercepted it, tearing out its throat.“I let myself be captured!” Silas continued, ducking under another attack. “I let them blackmail me so I could learn their plans! So I could find their weaknesses but I knew if I share

    The black veins retreated, disappearing as my magic flowed in his veins. Giovanni's convulsions slowed, then stopped. His eyes focused again and his breathing steadied.“Luna,” he whispered. “Thank you.”But the cost was immediate. The shield around us fell. My vision blurred. My legs gave out. The world tilted around me.“Elara!” I heard Sandro call out to me in my head as his large wolf rushed in my direction. Giovanni's eyes widened when he registered what was happening. “Luna, you need to…”Shadows wrapped around my arms, my legs, my throat.I coughed and tried to fight, tried to summon more magic, but I was too weak from healing Giovanni. The shadows lifted me off the ground, pulling me through the air toward Malachi.“Elara!” Sandro roared as he shifted in the air, fighting to reach me, but more robed figures blocked his path.I struggled against the shadows, but they were like iron. They dragged me to Malachi's feet, forcing me to kneel before him.His hand, no longer fully hu

    The ground beneath our feet trembled.“What's happening?” Trevor called out, as we struggled to keep our balance. All except Sandro who stood still, glaring in Malachi's direction.The stone floor began to rise, moving as one solid piece and lifting us upward like we were on an elevator. The chained wolves screamed louder as they rose with us.Sandro grabbed my arm to steady me as the chamber ascended with speed.Above us, the rocky ceiling split open with a sound like the world tearing apart. Blood red moonlight poured through the widening crack and we burst into the open air.I stared in disbelief. We were no longer underground. The chamber had risen to become a massive stone platform elevated high above the temple ruins. Around us stretched an open space I'd never seen before. It looked like a circular arena carved from ancient rock, surrounded by pillars that reached up toward the blood moon.“What is this place?” Alessia breathed.“The original temple,” Father Matteo whispered in

    Trevor caught her, lowering her gently to the ground.“She's fine,” Trevor confirmed, checking her pulse. “But she'll be out for a while.”“We can't take her with us,” Lady Thalia said, her voice hard but not exactly unkind. “She's a liability as long as she's under his control.”“I can't just leave her!” Sandro's refusal and disgust in her statement was evident.Lady Thalia was right but I understood how he must feel.“You have to.” I grabbed his arm, forcing him to look at me. “She fought so hard through mind control to warn us. Don't let that sacrifice be for nothing.”He looked down at Sofia's unconscious form, then at the temple entrance where red light pulsed and chanting echoed. The dead bodies of the hooded figures scattered around the ground.“You,” he called to one of the warriors. “Stay with her. Keep her safe. Restrain her if you need to buy gently. Just don't allow her to follow us.”The warrior nodded, pulling Sofia's body into his arms so he could move her.Sandro turne

    Sandro staggered back as if he'd been struck by lightning. I felt the exact same way too.“What are you talking about? This isn't real. You're in the safe house. You're supposed to be–”“Protected?” Sofia tilted her head with that same mechanical movement. “I think she's being mind controlled,” Makayla said, watching with increasing anxiety and I nodded.Tearing my eyes away from Sofia, I spoke up. “Sandro, I think she's being mind controlled.”He turned to me and the look in his eyes made me stumble back. He was devastated. This was worse than Silas’ betrayal. He considered my words for a moment. “Fight it!” Sandro pleaded, taking a step towards her. “Sofia, I know you're in there. You're stronger than this. Fight the control!”For just a moment, something flickered in Sofia's glazed eyes but it was gone before I could even recognize it, replaced by cold emptiness.“There's nothing to fight,” she said. “I serve the Master now. As will you all, once the harvest is complete.”The oth

    Makayla's paws slapped the ground hard as we rushed toward the Ancient Luna temple. Trees blurred past us and cold wind rushed through my fur.“I was worried. Why have you been so quiet?” I asked her, finally bringing myself to talk.“Something feels terribly wrong, Elara. I just haven't been able to figure out what,” she replied, her voice was filled with anxiety.Whatever she was feeling was right. But beyond that, something was wrong in the forest. Reality itself seemed to be shifting around us. Tree branches reached toward us like grasping fingers and we dodged out of the way. The path we'd been following suddenly veered left when I could have sworn it went straight.We had gone beyond Moretti Brun territory and towards unmarked territory where the ancient temple was. “The blood moon is affecting everything,” Lady Thalia called from her position beside Raka’s massive black form. She wasn't flying but she certainly wasn't walking either. “Reality is bending. Just keep your eyes an
